3M™ PPS™ Paint Preparation System

3M PPS Paint Preparation System

The 3M PPS System allows spray finishers the ability to quickly change between products such as stains and clearcoats without the hassle of cleaning their spraygun's OEM spraycup.

PPS

  • Closed System prevents outside contamination.
  • Substantial time and material savings during cleanup.
  • Spray gun functions at any angle (even upside down!).
  • Compatible with waterbornes or solvent finishes.
  • Quick change over between colors and clearcoats.
  • Provides good short term finish storage.
  • 3 Sizes of Cup Assemblies can be utilized on the same spray gun adapter.
 

The 3M PPS Adapter fitting is attached to the spraygun's regular cup connection and establishes a dedicated coupling that is used to attach the 3M PPS spray cup assembly.

The adapter can be left on the spraygun indefinitely and the single adapter will accomodate all sizes of the PPS Cup Assemblies. You can quickly switch from a 175ml (6oz) cup loaded with dye to a 650ml (3/4 quart) cup with clear lacquer. You simply clean the gun body during the switch.

Adapters for most other popular sprayguns are available for order ranging in price from $11 to $25. See the 3M Adapter Selector for more details.

The filled cup assembly is then attached to the PPS coupler on the spraygun and you are ready to spray. By pulling the trigger while inverted all air is evacuated from the cup to create an air free cup that can be used in any orientation without sucking air.
